SYNOPSIS :

Bluebeard brings Judith, his new bride, to a remote castle. There are no
windows, only seven locked doors. Bluebeard tells her that no one must see
what lies behind them. She asks that the doors be opened to let in air and
sunlight. He opens the first door, revealing a torture chamber. Judith is
unafraid and asks Bluebeard to let her open the second door. Behind it, she
finds his armory, its weapons covered in blood.

In the third room, she sees mountains of gold and gems, all stained with
blood. The fourth door reveals the castle's secret garden, its flowers
speckled with blood. He tells her not to question him and bids her open the
fifth door to fill the castle with light. Through the fifth door, Judith
sees Bluebeard's vast kingdom, but soon a cloud casts a blood-red shadow
over the radiant landscape.

Two doors are still unopened. He says they must remain so, but she again
resists. Bluebeard lets her open the sixth door. Behind it lies a tranquil
lake, filled with tears. Bluebeard warns her that the last door must stay
shut forever. She demands that it be opened. In the final chamber are the
ghosts of his former wives, whom she joins.

The Soapbox w/Jill Sommers
(Re)Telling Tucson's Story
Friday Night at 7:30 pm

Jill Sommers has been performing since the ripe ol' age of four when she wandered around the house belting every word of Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody". A recovering theater kid, she found a passion for storytelling on the stage and now applies it to her work every day in the marketing, communications, and public relations world. Her own stories are sprinkled with sarcasm, relatable awkwardness and influenced by the SNL comedians of her childhood that she watched on a DVD box set nearly every weekend. At the heart of it all, she's always known if she can make herself or someone else laugh, that's what it's all about! 

Everyone has a story to tell. Four short and personal stories from our special guest at 7:30 pm will inspire Tucson's premier improv comedy team.

 

 

 

We love you, and we hope that you love us! One of the best ways you can help the theater is to write a Google Review. The higher we can get our rankings the better we will look.  If you feel you can write us a 5-star review please post one today.  If you don't feel five-starish, please reach out to me and tell me how I can get you up to the 5-star level!

 

 

 

Come try out improv in a fun safe environment at the Jam Friday at 6:30pm!  Then stay for the Soapbox for just $5!
